#1 Buy more Clamps
#2 Buy more Clamps
#3 if you think you have enough clamps you probably need to buy more clamps!

So I have a few clamps, obviously no where near as many as I might need. Before I started re designing my shop I stores my clamps on and around a exterior door that isn’t used. Now they are stored where ever there is space. Obviously this isn’t a viable long term solution. I am thinking a mobile clamp cart would be the best solution for me.

I gotta get something going on it tomorrow I think. Right now the garage looks like a tornado hit it. Since I tore down all the storage I just have piles of tools and accessories everywhere. I get lost in the clutter all the time and just freeze up and end up walking out and doing something else. I am gonna start with the clamp cart then build three upper cabinets. Not necessarily in that order ;)

Probably going to use a variation of Norm’s design. I like the one I have seen with drawers coming out of the side. So I am off to Sketch Up my own design.
